National Policy Forum (NPF)
Welcome to Labour’s online home of policy development.
The National Policy Forum plays a crucial role in the development of the Labour Party’s policy platform to support the Labour Government and build towards the next General Election.
The current policy development cycle was launched in January 2025 following the 2024 General Election. We are now in the second year of that cycle.
The 2026 consultation ran from 5 March 2026 to 11 June 2026 and is now closed. Thank you to all members, affiliates, stakeholders and members of the public who submitted their views. The 2026 Annual Report is published below.
